WHY, WHY did you remove the Lunar Token Traders?

I still have 2 Stacks I got from Beetle Racing.What do I have to do now? Wait till next year? In other words, till GW is completely dead and abandonned, when there will mayby be 1 guy still playing?

FFS, There better be an "extra" event next week. Or just bring back the NPC'S for another week, so people can actually trade in there recently accumulated stacks...

Why do you guys lack any form of common sense? (Why remove NPC'S for rewards? There is mayby people that still get lunar tokens few minutes before event ends...)

Anet said it would end at 8pm GMT or whatever so it's your fault for not turning them in.

Yea, your just stupid. No offense. But thats all it comes down to.

They CLEARLY made it evident as to when the traders were going to disappear. The said all the festival events would run through Midnight PST with the culimnating finale, however the festival traders would remain until Monday Noon PST.

Should have actually read the event info before cramming in your password to log in and run around in the festival. GG no Re.

I was on a 18 consective Rollerbeetle Run...

By the way, WHY do they remove them anyways??? It makes no sense, atleast give people a week time to trade in their stuff!

Note:

When you do something stupid (unlogic) BUT you mention you were going to do it does NOT make it less stupid...

With Wintersday this was understandable, we didn't really know when the traders were going to be removed, but people still should have known to do everything before hand. However, in this case they made sure to state well in advance when the NPC's would be gone. If you have left overs it's your own fault.

/topic over.

Event ended last nite at Midnite pst, I woke up this morning at 6:00am opened my red gift bags, got more tokens, traded them in at 7:30am. So they didnt just removed them right away.

Until recently, you could usually go to district one and find the NPC's hanging around for several hours, after they where removed from higher districts. I've no-idea why they changed that, because it used to make an excellent buffer zone.

Lunar tokens are still dropping which is imo stupid since they've apparently removed the npc's.

Ah well shit happens.

Ok, but WHY several hours? Would it hurt that bad to make it a week??? No, It wouldn't... What about people that went on vacation? (Mid fest), people like me, who were in a cons run (over an hour)

Look, I get you guys point, Anet gives a date, but WHY does it have to be the same day the event ends? Common sense tells us that NOT everyone will be able to make a deadline so soon after the ending... A week bufferzone is just better :s

Removing quest NPC's etc makes sense. For those who have tokens, but only been able to get on, just now or whatever, are screwed.

It's fine and dandy to say, well it's your own fault, tough, but that's not very fair.
I would have thought it a reasonable assumption to believe that the token collectors at least would remain for at least a brief while longer to enable people to get rid of the last ones that they have.

Some people have tokens, some have red gift bags they haven't opened yet. If they get lunar tokens what happens? ah yes, they're screwed. Not brightest move. Could at least have removed them in a proper update, instead of in a sneaky one so people could trade all theirs in before updating

No it wouldn't, but *some* people would still ignore the deadline and make whine threads about it for no reason.

You were given adequate warning this event.

The finale finished at 12 midnight. You had 12 further hours after that time to finish up whatever you were doing, and cash in your tokens.

This is exactly why I dumped my red gift bags before I went to bed last night...the danger is too high that you'll be stuck with a year-long wait.
